We just got back from 3rd trip home in 1 year since we've joined and it was great.
We had a 2 BR at SRR in the Carousel section. Now, we had requested something closer to the pool, but I must say that we enjoyed being at Carousel if for no other reason than the fact we were the second bus stop and always managed to get a seat (or standing spot) on buses that were fairly busy!
Here are some shots from the resort:
We took my parents this trip and I must compliment Disney transportation for being able to handle a scooter so well on their buses. We never had an issue getting my dad on and off the bus. Although he had trouble getting my smallest son off the scooter and me as well!
One thing I will say: IT WAS HOT! Really. Hot. So we just employed a go to the parks in the afternoon strategy after the rain storms.
During the day, we took full advantage of the resort pool and community hall. The main pool was busy, but it wasn't so crowded that we couldn't get a chair or have space to swim.
As for Community Hall, well we've got 2 boys (a 6yr old and 16 month old) and it was nice to spend some time in the community hall room playing ping pong with my older son and watching the little one color.
We spent more time at the resort than ever this trip and now we know, we could really spend more than a week here easy! So much to do at the resort itself that we need a couple of days just to hang out.
My mom commented over and over that (this being her first time with us) she thinks we made a really good decision with DVC and she was so happy for us. She loved being able to cook meals for the family and spend time with the kids. The 2 BR easily held us all with room to spare.
The more we visit, the more we love our little home at SSR. If you have any questions, we'd be happy to share what we know.
